My advice would be to buy the best quality you can afford and get it professionally laid, friends of ours got theirs from Leroy Merlin and laid it themselves there is now a 2-3 inch gap between strips where shrinkage has taken place.

Hi, 

You do not need a professional to lay this just follow the manufacturer guide lines. Done mine here in the U.K. 2 years ago and still looks great. Make sure you use the backing tape and apply 2 strips to avoid shrinking.

Hi Diane we have just had our garden done with artificial grass, I used a company called eazylawns 
I used the professional company because my neighbors laid their grass themselves and a year down the line it does not look so great. We had 10 meters by 5 meters and it looks amazing. It was laid on top of tiles. 
good luck with your new casa. 
the guy that owns the company is Paul 636102509

Hi,

We are residents here and saw many properties with artificial grass during our walkabouts some better than others. When we decided to get ours done we used a company called realturf run by Jeremy Gulliver, we chose the grade we wanted and the finish is great!
